Ten veteran club riders came out and rode a spirited pace on our weekly ride to the Potomac River. Storm clouds and thunder lurked about, and forced an early departure from our river rest stop. But, as is frequently the case of late, no rain fell in the locale.
Joining ride leader Shane LaBrake were Kirsten Watts, Randy Schoch, Debi Jiggitts, Sonya Newman, Calvin Conyers, Reggie Stokes, Diane Harris, Walt Roscello and Jane Hudnall.
Walt rode his new recumbent from his home near LaPlata and then back again.
Diane worked on a high cadence spin most of the ride, and Sonya and Jane made a rapid run to the river from the outset. Six of us stayed in a cluster a bit behind them, and Calvin and Randy rode sweep.
The weather was warm and humid, but that seemed to affect the riders little. Kirsten actually posted her fastest AMS to date!
There were no mechanical issues (apart from Walt making a few adjustments to his new bike), and a fun time was had by all.
